STAY by THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN ESTORIL
Guests socializing during the wedding party at the Palácio Estoril Hotel
Collect affection in photographs
Those moments. To the wedding photographer, always curious, moments that need a fast reaction, in gathering events, are an irresistible attraction. I remember, perfectly, the wedding where, for the first time I felt that I was photographing a wedding, how I thought it must be done. After the meal, walking around with a camera in my hand and ready to hit the right eye, without notice, I was recollecting affections, laughs, surprises, or…nothing.
It was at that wedding that I became a wedding photographer. After, in the office, when verifying all those moments that made their way to the couple’s home, I felt that, even for them, I was not the same photographer if my work was not done like that.
Motivation to photograph
After that day, it is true, I departed to all weddings not because I was the photographer of the day, but as someone very curious with a new strong motivation to photograph. And that changed everything. It changes my attitude, my goal, and, especially, the result of my work. As I wrote here before, on that day I stayed a wedding photographer. Because we do not become, we stay.
